Your welcome.
I want to add a few things here that maybe folks dont know.
The baking powder I used up just today said, "Best if used by May 2014".
If baking powder gets hard toss it it is junk.
This never got hard.
Also if you use something too acidic like buttermilk you might want to leaven things use baking soda not baking powder.
Baking powder is basically baking soda mixed with an acid.
I am also sure if my baking powder would have been newer the biscuits would have risen more.
Once you learn the chemistry things start to come together.
As a general rule you use one teaspoon of baking powder for every cup of flour.
This is how I am able to dream up recipes.
Here is a wiki site that tells more about it.
